Spiced Pecans - Recipe

Yummy little snack; perfect for a holiday gift to share with friends and family....

Spiced Pecans:
1 egg white
2 Tbs organic agave nectar or raw organic honey
2 cups whole raw organic pecans
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp cayenne
(adjust the spices and quantity to your taste....I substituted the chili powder for 1/4 tsp cardamom for a more "Indian" taste.)

Preheat oven to 300*. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, lightly whisk egg white; then briefly whisk in agave/honey. Stir in pecans and coat evenly. Add in spices and stir until coated well. Transfer pecans to baking sheet. Bake for about 25 minutes, until the pecans are browned and the coating is dry. Cool completely and store in an airtight container.
